It was bit chilly but it was still shorts weather (just).
I had an 8.30 start today as I could only ride til 11 today.
Lots of leaves on the trails making it hard to see the roots and stumps I found one! I clipped a pedal which high sided me over the bars and ended up in a big heap on the ground quite lucky really though I was going to hit a tree.
Didn\'t have any more mishaps, well none that had me off the bike so they don\'t count.
I got told off for using my bell! some arrogant \"¬£%¬£ knew we were on the trail behind him but still refused to let us past so I gave him a little tinkle, the way he went off you would of thought it was big ben I had on my handle bars! (yep I did give it a proper ring once I knew it upset him)
Quite an interesting day!

Bike rage! Has happened to me too but the other way round - and I was only at Grafham for a quick spin. Bloke starts mouthing off at me to get out the way despite there being about 10m wide of grass next to me, and even enough room on the track if he could ride properly....I need a bell for the commute really any recommendations??

I've just added a couple of MTB categories to the FON amazon Store. I don't know if there is a bell in there, but there is some pretty cool MTB clothing at decent prices.

I need a decent waterproof, breathable jacket but don't know which one to get... I guess one that packs up pretty small would be good as well.
